摘要:
Systems and methods for building speech-based applications using reusable dialog components based on VoiceXML (Voice eXtensible Markup Language). VoiceXML reusable dialog components can be used for building a voice interface for use with multi-modal, multi-channel and conversational applications that offer universal access to information anytime, from any location, using any pervasive computing device regardless of its I/O modality. In one embodiment, a framework for reusable dialog components built within the VoiceXML specifications is based on the tag and ECMAScript parameter objects to pass parameters, configuration and results. This solution is interpreted at the client side (VoiceXML browser). In another embodiment, a framework for reusable dialog components is based on JSP (Java Server Pages) and beans that generate VoiceXML subdialogs. This solution can be evaluated at the server side. These frameworks can be mixed and matched depending on the application.
摘要:
A factored multimodal interaction architecture for a distributed computing system is disclosed. The distributed computing system includes a plurality of clients and at least one application server that can interact with the clients via a plurality of interaction modalities. The factored architecture includes an interaction manager with a multimodal interface, wherein the interaction manager can receive a client request for a multimodal application in one interaction modality and transmit the client request in another modality, a browser adapter for each client browser, where each browser adapter includes the multimodal interface, and one or more pluggable synchronization modules. Each synchronization module implements one of the plurality of interaction modalities between one of the plurality of clients and the server such that the synchronization module for an interaction modality mediates communication between the multimodal interface of the client browser adapter and the multimodal interface of the interaction manager.
